Measure and take butter in a mixing bowl, add powdered sugar to it.
Whisk it well, I used my hand whisk, you can use electric mixer too. Whisk it until creamy and fluffy.
Now add vanilla essence and salt. Finally add in the flour.
Mix with a spatula to form a dough.
Now use your hands to roll into a ball, cling wrap it and refrigerate it.
I used half of the dough for this cookie. Chop the dry fruits and nuts. Now half portion of the prepared dough add the dry fruits and nuts.
Mix it well so that the dry fruits and nuts are evenly distributed.
Now shape it into a log, place it on a butter paper.
Wrap it well, refrigerate it for atleast 1 hour. Slice the log.
Preheat the oven at 180 deg C for 10 mins.
Slice it not too thick or too thin.
Transfer it to a baking tray lined with aluminum foil.
Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 mins or until the edges turn golden.
Cool down then store Fruit & Nut Cookies in airtight container.
